+ why? - alopecia
thanks to the fairy godbrother otherwise known as captain k-rad i am listening to the new Why? album, Alopecia and it's bloody awesome. it is very much what i was expecting/hoping for, though not nearly as dark and bleak musically as the 'single' (the hollows) or the opener (the voweks pt 2) might have suggested. yoni wolf has never been short of musical ideas but on earlier releases they sometimes sounded half-realised. last album was great, the song-craft had improved immensely and still maintained the slightly chaotic, anything-goes approach. now that essence is distilled even further, but as an album it works really well as songs blend seemlessly into another. anyway still digesting the record, i'm only on my 3rd listen as i type so more later.
